RAISE-2 (RApid Innovative payload demonstration SatellitE-2) is a smallsat for technology demonstration, part of the Japanese space agency JAXA's Innovative Satellite Technology Demonstration Program. RAISE-2 was launched on 9 November 2021 as the main satellite of Innovative Satellite Technology Demonstration-2.[1][2] RAISE-2 was developed by Mitsubishi Electric.[3]

Instruments[]

RAISE-2 carries six payloads that will each be tested in orbit during its one year mission. The payloads were selected in December 2018.[4]

  • SPR was developed by Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation
  • I-FOG (In-orbit Demonstration of Closed-Loop Fiber Optic Gyro) was developed by Tamagawa Seiki Company
  • ASC was developed by Amanogi Corporation
  • 3D-ANT is a satellite antenna made by a 3D printer, it was developed by Mitsubishi Electric[5]
  • ATCD was developed by Tohoku University
  • MARIN was developed by JAXA
